Wyk auf Fohr

Few towns in Schleswig-Holstein have a history as closely tied to North Sea sea bathing as Wyk auf Föhr. Set on Föhr’s southeastern shore, the town faces the Wadden Sea, a tidal coastal world of mudflats, channels and shifting sands protected as part of the Schleswig-Holstein Wadden Sea National Park. Bathing guests began arriving in 1819, and the resort tradition still shapes the long Sandwall seafront and its outlook towards the small Halligen islands. Wyk is also a base for experiencing Föhr’s Frisian identity, from distinctive thatched farmhouses to its German and North Frisian heritage.
